Comfort Eating - a song

Five doughnuts in one day
And a round of toast with peanut butter on it
Jammy dodgers, Shortbread, Twix
The sun shines on the cupboards waiting for my necessary fix

Even when I’m feeling warm
The temperature could drop away
Need five doughnuts in one day

Scoffing as the shit comes down
You can’t tell a mum from what she has to eat
Everything gets turned around
And I will shove it down my neck again

I will buy treats when I’m down
When I’m happy, when I’m sad
Like all the times I can't explain
Five doughnuts in one day

I want more
Like crisps like crisps
Fills my mouth
Like five doughnuts in one day

It doesn't pay to make predictions sleeping on a springy bed
Finding out wherever there is comfort there is food
Only one room away
Those five doughnuts in one day

I want more
Like crisps like crisps
Fills my plate
Like five doughnuts in one day
